What stops the flow of electricity by switching off the current if it gets too high?

what switches a current of electricity if it gets to high is that it overloads a system (which is called a surge (if sudden)) also if you do it manually it is the disruption in the circuit that stops the flow of electricity entirely.

An object that stops the flow of electricity is called?
An object that will stop the flow of a current is called a switch.
What kind of circuit will not allow electricity to flow because there is a disconnection or the switch is off?
All electricity or electronic circuits will not allow the current to flow if they have switching devices in series in their circuits.
What device used to stop and start the flow of electricity in a circuit is a?
A switch is a device that stops and starts current flow in a circuit.
What protects equipment from too much current by tripping a switch that breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity?
Circuit Breaker

What is the scientific name for something that stops the flow of electricity?
An insulator is a material that stops or reduces the flow of electricity.
What happens if the track of the current is broken in a series circuit?
In a series circuit, if the current is broken the flow of all electricity stops.
Is voltage a flow of electricity?
no...current is a flow of electricity
What protects equipment from too much current by tripping a switch that breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity?
Circuit Breaker
Something that stops the flow of electricity?
Switches.
What is and electrical current?
current electricity is where electrons flow through a conductor.static electricity electrons do not flow
What is a flow of electricity?
a current
Something that will not let electricity flow through it?
Something that does not allow current to flow is called an insulator. "Electricity" doesn't flow, only current, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Note, current is the flow of electrons.
